Really cool outdoor space with good food, great for groups and vibey dates. If you want to eat outside, this is a top choice. You order at the window so the service is real quick and easy. Ordered a few tacos, the queso, and a bowl. So the tacos were ok, no real complaints. But the bowl is where it’s at. Beans and rice and guacamole and choice of protein and you can add broccoli and mushrooms. Great meal, really filling and delicious. The queso was unique, I added the chili and it came with pomegranate so it was a mixture of spice and sweet. Also, don’t sleep on the frozen mango margarita. Delish. This’ll be the happening spot as the weather warms up!

Barracuda, nestled in the vibrant heart of New Orleans, offers an unforgettable dining experience, particularly for those with a penchant for authentic and inventive tacos. This gem stands out not only for its exceptional culinary creations but also for its inviting atmosphere, especially its delightful outdoor space.The tacos at Barracuda are arguably some of the best in the city, crafted with a blend of traditional techniques and innovative twists that tantalize the taste buds. Each taco is a testament to the quality and freshness of the ingredients used, making every bite a memorable one. The guacamole, a staple of Mexican cuisine, is prepared to perfection, striking the right balance of flavors and textures that complement the tacos beautifully.While regulars may fondly remember the unique offering of fried avocado slices—a menu item that added a delightful crunch and richness to the meal—the current menu continues to impress with its variety and taste. Each dish is thoughtfully designed to showcase the vibrant and diverse flavors of Mexican cuisine, ensuring there's something to satisfy every palate.
